We ran across an interview excerpt with AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson that will run in the Sunday print edition of the Dallas Morning News.
There are two interesting takeaways from the interview:
First, AT&T is taking a deep interest in the cloud. Stephenson talks about the networking deals it is winning by providing infrastructure to major cloud computing services.
And second, Stephenson spent the interview showing off the Android-powered Samsung Captivate he's currently using.
Here's what Stephenson had to say about cloud computng:
"A classic case would be Royal Dutch Shell, a big multinational company, and they have hundreds of thousands of people around the globe, and a lot of these big companies manage their own networking capabilities. They came to us and said, 'This stuff is changing fast, it's moving fast. Would you just take this and all of our people and just manage it for us?' We won that bid. We did the same thing with IBM. IBM's global network capability, we took thousands of their people onto our payroll, took over managing all of their networks, and bam, we do it much, much more efficiently.
